i dont know why but i did an 80s/90s hong kong mini film marathon for new years: 1) righting wrongs (1986) - loving loved it. whipped rear end. cynthia rothrock does good fight stuff and a man who didnt even wear a wig to try to look like cynthia rothrock did her best stunt. also SPOILER ALERT she loving dies which was a genuine shock. 2) armour of god (1986) - realized halfway through that i had seen it before. every stunt jackie chan does is great. movie isnt too great. famous for being the film that came closest to killing jackie. fell out a tree and literally cracked his skull. there is a scene where jackie has to fight 4 beautiful women, but through 90% of the fight, they turn into muscular asian men in wigs. an odd artistic choice but its nearly seamless. 3) operation condor (amour of god 2) (1991) - kind of loved it despite being dumb. stunts werent anything to write home about but had a great 3rd act. maybe i was just the right amount of drunk by the time this one came on.

i feel like most bands before a certain year were dicks to nardwuar. then people started hearing about who he is and the gimmick and now he is more beloved.

i can imagine that at the time (early 90s) sonic youth were very anti corporate radio and when a gimmick ambush interviewer approaches you its pretty easy to imagine they are just typical radio personas or something. probably just pissed them off. i imagine all rock bands of that era (at least in the usa) were like that. but i dont know much about sonic youth drama. i just like a few of their albums (mostly the 80s and early 90s ones)

ZeusCannon posted:Die Hard 2 is probably the worst die hard (of the original 3) but it's also very fun. agreed. it really really wants to be die hard 1 so bad. i have a theory that (at least for the 1st 3 films) when john mcclane is estranged from his wife, the films are better. he just loves his wife too much for die hard 2 to be a good film. sad really

Sir Lemming posted:Tough call between Die Hard 2 and 3. DH2 definitely feels cheapest of all the movies, like it was made for VHS, just complete '80s schlock, though it had a decent budget I suppose. On the other hand DH3 has that really lame twist that makes a lot of the plot completely pointless, and some really forced edgy racial tension. Feels like the original TLJ in a way, a lot of ideas for how to mix things up but no idea how to thread the needle. disagree. 3 is much better than 2. its got jeremys iron and puzzles for starters.

i learned that you should fill up the 5 gallon jug full. then empty that jug into the 3 gallon jug until its full. empty the 3 gallon jug. pour the remaining 2 gallons from the 5 gallon jug into the 3 gallon jug. fill the 5 gallon jug. pour out 1 gallon into the space remaining in the 3 gallon jug leaving EXACTLY 4 GALLONS!

NorgLyle posted:After it was featured on BotW, I tracked down a copy of Stone Cold starring Brian Bosworth and it is even more fantastic than the episode made it look. It literally feels like watching Norm MacDonald describe a parody of 80s action movies in a completely deadpan way where you're never actually sure if you're supposed to be laughing or not. absolutely true. i recommend it to all the people i find out love 80s action. it truly feels both self aware and clueless

as an uneducated typical american, i feel i should weigh in on the irish reunification issue. i propose that a channel be dug to separate ireland and northern iteland and that dirt (and much more fill) be used to expand irelands landmass elsewhere but equal to the size of northern ireland.. perhaps on the western shore because who wants be closer to the english. thank you. if this idea is used please cite my forums name in the plan

thats weird. even in the original version its barely recognizable. i wonder if they didnt fully ever say or write “stairway to heaven” if they could have played more of the song. copyright is so weird.

just watched friedkin’s to live and die in l.a. after all these years. like everyone else, i am a fan of friedkin, dafoe, and extremely 80s films. but somehow this one didnt do it for me. had a bunch of twists and thrills but ultimately fell flat. honestly it was so extremely 80s with a fuckin wang chung soundtrack and an attempted reagan assassination that i was hoping would succeed. all of that was great but the film was disjointed and erratic. the dialogue was laughable almost all of the time. great special effects and car chases though.
